Hizbullah would likely shoot between 400 and 600 missiles a day into Israel during a future war, a senior Mossad official told a congressional delegation to Israel in 2009, according to a US diplomatic cable published on Sunday. The cable from November 2009 summed up meetings a delegation led by Ike Skelton (D-Missouri) held with top officials from the Mossad, the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) and the IDF. It was first published on Sunday by Norways Aftenposten newspaper, which received it from WikiLeaks. According to the Mossad official, 100 of the missiles will hit Tel Aviv.

One can only wonder how many days Israel will tolerate such an assault before rototilling a few square miles of real estate with simple conventional munitions that are already targeted spot on their launch zone.

The civilians who have no problem with rocket launchers and artilery emplacements in their back yards are not civilians, they are combatants.

Well... The IDF should be able to make sure that such an attack lasts only about an hour. They most likely already know where the rockets are stored at various locations. Unlike the current US DoD, the Israeli IDF would not choose to sit and talk about peace. Go Israel!

The winkidinki myth makers have already put the civilian population on notice.

It could get ugly, unless the $hiteaters back off.

They will not, as civilian casualties are their goal.

Then the un pigs can go all hyprecrap on Israel, after some maggot and his kids get vaporized by Israeli artillery response rounds while watching the launchers flame his back yard.. Kind of like our fourth of July, but with others shooting back...

Not if Israel pre-emptively destroys all their launch sites. They aren't hard to find... any standing building in Gaza is a launch site. Level all the standing buildings and there won't be anywhere near as many launches.
